Predictions for the coming season

If team not strengthened and the fab 4 all leave then relegation.

Never been this low at the start of a season and I watched during re-election season and late 80's, early 90's.
 
The club will blame a relegation on Covid, not their letting go of players and the subsequent failing to replace them with the unexpected incoming funds.

Hemmings Out.
 
• Top 2 - Watford, Norwich
• Play-offs - Brentford, Stoke, Bournemouth, Forest
• Bottom 3 - Sheff Weds, Rotherham, Luton
• Champ. surprise team - Stoke
• Champ. top scorer - Grabban
• PNE’ standout player - DJ (should he stay)
• PNE’s finish - 12th
• PNE’s top scorer - Barkhuizen
Pretty close...
 
I'm scoring them up this weekend but it's pretty close, only a couple of the 120+ entrants got all the top 6 correct.
Some people genuinely predicted Barnsley would get in the playoffs?!
 
They might still get out of it !!
True but if the deduction hadn't been reduced from 12 to 6 points they would have been sunk now.
They now need to win at Derby and hope Rotherham fail to win either of their 2 remaining games (Luton and Cardiff away).
Gonna be a tense last day for those 3 clubs.
I'd make Derby slight favourites to stay up but hope I'm wrong.
 
We've had a difficult and largely disappointing season but a number of teams have badly underachieved.
Forest, Derby, Rovers and Bristol City probably the worst. Wednesday were always up against it with the points deduction.
 
Barnsley are the clear winners in the overachievers category.
Luton have done well also but hopefully we can nick that last top half place off them (unlikely)
 
Loads had Forest in playoffs
Hopefully this copies across OK. 114 entries
